Due to the current COVID pandemic, please inform your child(ren)’s teacher or call the main office at 595-5400 by 8am whenever your child is/will be absent. Please include the reason for absence. If your child is sick, please inform us of the symptoms they are having.
Continue to do a Wellness Check each day before school. Any student who is exhibiting COVID-like symptoms will be immediately isolated and sent home.
Negative home COVID tests are NOT accepted. Should your child need to take a COVID test, please visit your healthcare provider or any location listed on the COVID-19 State of Hawaii Portal’s test site finder.
If your child is exhibiting COVID-like symptoms, they will be required to follow the return to school/work criteria before returning to school, regardless of vaccination status.
If your child or someone in your household tests positive for COVID-19, please be sure to inform the school immediately. We rely heavily on the transparency of parents/guardians to help keep our Maemae ohana and community safe.
VACCINATION INFORMATION
Some individuals may experience side effects after receiving the vaccine. If your child(ren) exhibits any symptoms other than pain at the injection site, please do not send them to school until the symptoms are resolved. If post-vaccine side effects are substantial or persist longer than 48 hours, we will require a COVID test or a doctor’s note before returning to school.
Individuals are considered fully vaccinated 2 weeks after the second dose.
Fully vaccinated individuals who exhibit COVID-like symptoms will still need to follow the return to school/work criteria before returning to school.
Fully vaccinated individuals are not required to do a 5 day quarantine after close contact/possible exposure with a positive case as long as they are symptom-free. Proof of vaccination is required.
Once your child has been fully vaccinated, we encourage you to send a copy of your child(ren)’s vaccination record to our School Health Aide at karen.tolentino@k12.hi.us for record keeping.

Maʻemaʻe, clean and pure in the Hawaiian language, is situated in beautiful, historic Nuʻuanu Valley. Founded in the late 1800's, Maʻemaʻe has grown from a simple three-building facility to its present design with seven buildings that accommodate nearly 700 students from kindergarten through the fifth grade.
Residents from all facets of the community support the school in many ways. The annual Family Fun Night and the Maʻemaʻe School Community Council, are examples of people in the community coming together to create an environment that supports learning and growing for all.
